Tokico CONFUSION...
The front passenger shock on my '04 sedan has started leaking so it looks like I'm in for a replacement set ...
I have the sport suspension and do A LOT of distance/highway driving (137k miles and counting) so I want to maintain the stock ride.
I've been searching the forum all morning and am left confused. A couple posts state Tokico is the OEM manufacturer for the shock, yet thier HP replacement shock only comes in one flavor and explicitly states "exec. awd and sport":

In comparison, KYB sells both a sport and non-sport shock (see attached from their online catalog).
Is there somewhere I can find a Tokico sport-compatible shock without going to the dealiership (and paying dealership prices)?

From my understanding, the tokico blues(hp) are a bit stiffer than the OEM stock shock. So then it would be similar to sport shocks since they ride a bit stiffer than stock shocks.
I have the tokico blues and they ride fine. A lot of people are running tokico blues and they like them. I hope that help.

I have a stock 09 G37S and I assume they are the Tokico blues. I was changing my rear pads and saw Tokico stamped on the shock. They ride fine but I'd prefer a stiffer ride.
